Good but not great - yet :-)I judge apps based on whether I am inclined to use the app instead of working through the full desktop site. This app is great for checking activity of other users and just keeping a pulse on what's going on.
However, if you really want to post more engaging updates such as surveys you still need to go to the full site. I'm confident they will work through this in future versions. All in all it's worth a shot.

Its hard to say enough good things about this app. It wraps into a single to just about everything a person needs to manage a project, a team, or just a busy life.
IT WORKS THE WAY I THINK!!!
1. It allows you to create "workspaces" that represent the Functions you participate in or lead.
2. It allows you to create projects that are attached to workspaces or stan-alone.
3. It allows you to create deliverable, also attached or stand alone.
4. It allows you to create a network or "resource pool" of individuals to pull from to attach to a workspace where they cab given assignments.
5. It has a hiring section that does a great job of hitting the basics of a well-structured hiring process.
6. It can import your email so that you can see communication and delegate tasks accordingly.
7. Tasks and deliverables delegate stay on your radar so you can know and report where things stand.
8. Individual updates are immediate viewable.
9. A staff management function includes nearly every major management activity, and employees could use it to track their own activities for review time.
10. Each functional area has an activity log, so you can quickly review whats happening without opening each detail.
It took me all of 60 minutes to set up; and I've already had my management tech lobotomy. I'm Chairman of the Board of one company, an am providing lead venture consulting to two others.
I'm helping 3 startups. All 3 will be on Podio by end of day today.
THIS APP ROCKS!!!!!!!!

Great AppLove this app. It's changing the way we do business. We were using Huddle but switched to Podio. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I would like to see the ability to link with PDF Expert and Quickdocs to edit documents from the app like Huddle.
